Review of Shadow of the Vampire (2000) by Erg1008 — 22 Aug 2010

Man tries to make Dracula film without Bram Stoker's consent, goes to eerie locations, gets oddball to play the vampire, things go wrong.

With a cast as decent as this & the story based on such a classic film, it's a shame this was nowhere near as good as it could have been.

It begins very well but quickly starts to jump about & become disjointed & does seemed very rushed by the end.

Willem Dafoe is amazing as Max Schrek but they should have used him more sparingly & made him even more mysterious.
